What is Single Incision Sleeve Gastric Surgery? Many people’s obesity is something that they don’t realize until they are reminded many times by others to lose weight. Because the word obesity is something we are afraid of, we hate being called fat. So what is the single incision sleeve stomach surgery that is more popular today? Does it work? Find out below. Single Incision Sleeve Gastric Surgery Weight loss is based on the principle of using laparoscopy to cut out the greater curvature of the stomach vertically so that the stomach creates a small gastric pouch of about 150 cc, which can hold about 4-5 ounces of food. It has the advantage of not requiring the placement of foreign objects in the body, and the surgery is highly effective in weight loss. The general approach to single-incision surgery is as follows: Method 1 involves making an incision of about 2 cm in the umbilicus and placing a multi-hole trocar to perform the surgery; Method 2 involves placing multiple trocars in it to perform the surgery. Multiple trocars around the umbilicus are used for surgery in most cases. Single incision laparoscopic surgery poses new challenges to the attending surgeon in terms of experience and skill, and must be performed with patient safety and efficacy in mind! Only a few hospitals in the country are able to master this technique maturely. We, the Center for Bariatric Surgery of Jinshazhou Hospital, Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, have completed a total of 72 single-port bariatric surgeries. Currently, the incision-related complication rate of single-incision laparoscopic surgeries is low, the incision should be effectively protected during the operation, and the incision closure after the operation must be tight and indeed. Single-incision laparoscopic surgery has more prominent minimally invasive, safe, aesthetic, and less postoperative pain characteristics when compared with traditional laparoscopic minimally invasive abdominal surgery. Due to less trauma, single-incision laparoscopic surgery is less painful than standard laparoscopic surgery, which reduces the amount of intraoperative and postoperative anesthesia and analgesic drugs. Patients recover faster after surgery and hospitalization costs are reduced accordingly.
